Good hotel as a base

Great location, we love walking so it was close enough to the river walk and the downtown area. Very cozy and a nice warm atmosphere in the community area where they have an honor system for wine and other alcoholic and regular drinks. We only stayed one night but would definitely be back and stay longer. This is not the hotel if you want to have a view and spend time hanging out. That’s not its purpose.
